@hubermanlab It's like low level girlfriend juggling. It's just going to prove you're a loser.

Think that low level (drinking, gambling, online addiction etc) problem is no big deal? Test that notion. Play the tape out. You’ll see the ending (if you’re brave enough to look). You can intervene but you have to play the tape out. David Choe on the Huberman Lab podcast.

@BenStiller Lions are also cats, you should adopt a wild one to cuddle your children 😂

Somalis are not garbage. Immigrants and refugees from anywhere are people like you and me. They should not be demonized. This country is built on the backs of people who have come from other places. It’s what our country is all about. 💙

@hfeathers71 @BrianRoemmele How do I make mine?

@daowiz @BrianRoemmele It's already happening, now ❤️🌟

If you let it, the world around you can encourage you to become what you don’t want. What if YOUR private and personal local AI helps you see this and guide you back? What would your world look like? “OpenAI” or Google isn’t going to sell this. It will be open source.

@CryptoElfie It just proves that Satoshi is an alien from Andromeda and he played Space Quest like a boss.

Does this bring us closer to the mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto?! 🫆 In 1991: “Buckazoid” money appers in a game called Sierra games, with a Bitcoin logo on it. Made by: Satoshi Uesaka Rod Nakamoto Hal Finney In 2008 “Satoshi Nakamoto” launched Bitcoin as a real asset. In 2014 Hal Finney dies, the same year that Satoshi Nakamoto stops leaving traces online. This was rediscovered recently. Have you heard about this? What are your overall thoughts? Does it bring us closer to the mystery?! 👀

@IamKyros69 There were and are always docs. You can learn bash in the terminal by reading application manuals. You can read source code of many open projects to learn any sort of language. There are millions of books on any of these subjects and they were there, being written from the start.

How did people even learn to code when there was no docs, no YouTube… nothing? Genuinely curious.

@hr_unhinged Stop distracting people while they're working. Go find something useful to do.

I noticed one employee wearing noise-canceling headphones. Not earbuds. The big, cushioned over-ear kind that create a tiny personal universe. I asked if everything was alright. He said yes, he’s just trying to focus. I told him we value focus, but isolation can misread as resistance to collaboration. He said he’s literally sitting at his desk doing his job. I told him we track human presence, not just output. He asked how presence is measured. I said imperfectly, which is why it's so important. Then I logged “avoiding spontaneous culture building opportunities” in his engagement profile.

To engineer a robust and efficient system around a particular microcontroller that fits that particular use case, you need to design and build good electronic circuits. What you have mentioned is all great for prototyping but a finished product requires a lot better custom design.

@oprydai I'm an electronic engineer and disagree. Electronics are so cheap now compared to 10y ago. You can easily buy modules from China: power source, rf modules, sensors, power modules, raspberries, arduino, and so on. Makes almost no sense to design your own circuit and pcb nowadays.

if you’re in software, pivot to electronics. because the next decade isn’t about writing apps. it’s about wiring intelligence into matter. software is saturated. electronics is starving for talent. chips, sensors, power electronics, motor drivers, RF, embedded systems, PCB design; these are the foundations of every real-world intelligent machine being built right now. the future is physical: robots, drones, autonomous vehicles, industrial automation, medical devices, energy systems, wearables, smart infrastructure. every one of them needs people who understand electrons, not just abstractions. software gives you leverage. electronics gives you capability. combine both and you become unstoppable. learn circuits. learn embedded. learn signal flow. learn microcontrollers. learn power systems. learn how to put intelligence directly into hardware. the world is reindustrializing. there’s a new frontier opening. don’t miss the wave.

@FFT1776 Ai makes those kinds of images happen.

Okay I’m stumped!?? How did this happen?😂

@BrianRoemmele Light is a symphony. Different arrangement every moment.

A photon never experiences time from its perspective. T=0 as per Special Relativity and to the photon, the Big Bang, just took place. The photon may be a product of the new theory of—the Quantum Platform? If it is proven accurate, reality is not unfolding… It is deploying.

@adafruit @itsfoss Nasty corporate piggies!

The enshittification of Arduino begins? Qualcomm starts clamping down #Arduino @itsfoss blog.adafruit.com/2025/11/21/the…

One of the main U.S. doomsday bunkers intended for the elite during the geophysical event is built at a 7,000-foot elevation, buried under 2,000 feet of natural granite. This doomsday bunker is intended to protect them from core-mantle decoupling and the spilling of the oceans, from space radiation during the Grand Solar Minimum and the weakened magnetic field, and from the extreme weather outside. Inside, it has its own power supply, underground lakes, food stockpiles, preserved technology, and now they probably have large data centers with recently developed A.I. technology. The Cheyenne Mountain doomsday bunker was not built for nuclear war, that is just the scapegoat. They have known about the geophysical event since the 1940s. It’s interesting that close to the doomsday bunker there is a zoo with animals and a Shrine of the Sun, which is connected to the movement of the Sun through the zodiac constellations. It gives a kind of Noah’s Ark vibe.

The old ways, by hand…

@adafruit @Qualcomm @arduino There seems to be a trend these days of open source ecosystems and not for profit initiatives being eaten up by greedy corporates and other leveraged entities. Data mining going into overdrive in the age of Ai. What will be the antidote??

@Qualcomm @arduino posted a response instead of talking to anyone who does anything in open-source, and said they couldn't respond to the journalists contacting them which was a lie, but whatever (they will do an interview about the Q!) Any way, as expected, it did not answer our questions lnkd.in/ePr7jkDE and they avoid the big ones. They say you can email but it goes to a zendesk autoreply. try! privacy@arduino.cc Here's why... Qualcomm specifically @nakulduggal can we do a live video interview? We'll send the questions in advance... You keep repeating “we’re open-source” as a blanket reassurance, but the problems people raised aren’t about the parts of Arduino that were already open. They’re about the new sections that expand corporate control, restrict user rights, and give Qualcomm deeper access to user data. Here are the unresolved points: The irrevocable, perpetual, transferable license over all user content. You say users “retain ownership,” but the license you claim over everything published is broad enough to monetize, republish, sublicense, or feed into any Qualcomm system forever. Why is this clause perpetual and irrevocable if you don’t intend to use it that way? The restriction on reverse-engineering cloud services. You frame this as “only SaaS,” but cloud is now fundamental to many Arduino workflows. Why is reverse-engineering prohibited at all for a company built on openly hackable systems? The patent-infringement shield clause. No open-source company puts language in their ToS banning users from identifying potential patent issues. Why was this added, and who requested it? Five-year username retention after deletion or inactivity. You say this was done “per community request,” but most open communities allow instant anonymization. Where is the record of this request, and why is five years the default? Qualcomm data integration. You say the acquisition “doesn’t modify how user data is handled,” yet the Privacy Policy explicitly states data is shared across the Qualcomm Group globally. What data flows to Qualcomm, and why wasn’t this disclosed at acquisition time? AI monitoring and usage tracking. Your AI policy allows broad behavioral monitoring, compute tracking, and compliance logging. What data from these AI systems is retained, who has access, and why is this collection opt-out only by not using the features? If the goal is clarity and compliance, great. Then provide clarity. Right now, the new terms read like Qualcomm drafted them and Arduino added a nostalgia paragraph on top to get pt to shut up. Happy to keep the conversation going, but these are direct questions that need direct answers. Read it for yourself... blog.arduino.cc/2025/11/21/the… @cristianoamon @mbanzi @FabioViolante @MarcelloMajonchi

@dathon_ohm I am the resistance, you are the resistance. We create logic utility.

When in doubt about which side to support in a conflict, always support the side that wants more people to run nodes.

@SameeLiaei Well summarized. It really is that simple.

If Bitcoin isn’t a pure monetary asset, meaning a decentralized ledger, if it is instead some sort of block space for sale/global virtual machine, there is no reason it should have $2 trillion of wealth locked up in it. If it’s going to be optimized for some sort of revenue generating systems, then it’s a shittier version of ETH, and will be priced accordingly. In fact, Bitcoin has always been, until v30, optimized for being a decentralized ledger. You shitcoiners have jammed your way in and are trying to show horn this thing into something it’s not. Either you win and the Bitcoin node network collapses and the monetary value of the network goes with it, or we win and we restore its monetary focus and continue to optimize for a decentralized ledger.

The Knots crowd is pushing to censor bitcoin based on a false legal panic that node runners could be hit with unprecedented CSAM charges. This is pointless, as today’s Ordiknots release from the Taproot Wizards shows, there are always new ways to add data to the blockchain.

@lukedewolf Core is no longer Bitcoin.

I've finally put my finger on the thing that bothers me most about Core's behavior around this whole OP_RETURN/Knots/444 debate. They're trying to centrally engineer Bitcoin. I've been in a lot of conversations over the last couple of weeks, most in the pro-444 camp but I try to talk to opposing voices when they're willing to engage. I've been trying my best to see their point of view, understand the technological implications as well as I can, and keep an open mind. I think I've finally understood Core's viewpoint, at least much better than before. And it all comes down to that Core views the network as a whole as this unit that they can optimize and engineer into perfection. The whole rationale for the OP_RETURN limit increase comes down to avoiding mempool fragmentation and minimizing block reconstruction times as a result. As I understand it, the issue is that valid blocks with transactions that aren't in a miner's mempool (because they've been filtered out) take a little time to validate, and in that time, miners who aren't filtering can be working on the new block. We're talking a couple of seconds here. In other words, they're trying to avoid a potential miner centralization vector. This is a noble goal. But it entirely ignores human behavior! Firstly, there is a subset of miners who is willing to forego some revenue and only mine monetary transactions. Those miners are accepting the tradeoff of filtering their mempools. Further, there is a (larger) subset of noderunners who do not want to relay arbitrary transactions. Regardless of the "effectiveness" of individual node policies (in terms of what transactions make it into blocks), it's an individual choice. I also maintain that filters work, differently than you might think, but that's a separate discussion. This is all to say that Core's aim to centrally plan the Bitcoin network is never going to work, just like central planning never has. They're trying to achieve this perfect software, just like socialist governments are and have been trying to achieve the perfect economy and society. It doesn't work. You can't engineer people like that. This also leads me back to other criticisms of Core being centrally managed by a few specific funding organizations. This is another point I've touched on separately and won't go into further here, except to point out that I believe the behavior of Core is down to being managed in a centralized way (again, I understand, it's still technically an open source project, but it has all the characteristics of a typical corporate software shop). I've personally stated, and I believe this, that if Core were to revert the OP_RETURN policy limit in a hotfix (or even just lower it to some compromise level, like 256 bytes) would defuse the situation for the time being. Some voices in the space (on both sides) agree that this approach would be preferable to forcing a fork through. The responses I've seen from Core developers has been somewhere between flat rejection and mocking derision. They don't see any value in compromising with users, even if it would avoid massive controversy. The only thing that matters to them is being "technically correct". I assert that all of these technical matters are debatable, and what they consider technically correct may not be the most important thing to portions of their userbase. In summary, Core is prioritizing perfect engineering over working with people. They're assuming that nodes and miners will act in an "economically rational" manner. People don't work like that. The irony is that their attempt to avoid mempool fragmentation has made the problem significantly worse. I'll just leave that without further comment.
